Had a bit of a hectic first week. My wife had some work in Mahe. Went for an inauguration ceremony of the company with the Pondicherry Home minister invited as VIP guest! Brought along his little(!?) entourage as well who all had to give a little speech!
Same day back to Palakkad, then the following day was my wife's cousin's engagement ceremony in Thrissur. Directly from there the whole family went to Mahe again as there was still more work to do. We stayed in a fantastic hotel, which was more like an old imperial house with only 6 rooms. They make you feel as if you are guests in their home. Everything is included including 3 meals per day and the owner is a top class chef as well. The balcony overlooks the sea and there are stunning sunset views.
Went to the fort in Thalassery as well as the only driving beach in India. There we also learnt how to dig for clams! Apparently the beach is full of people collecting them in the morning to have for breakfast.
Overall, the hotel was fantastic, and we had a great time relaxing in the outdoor pool. There isn't that much to do around Mahe and Thalassery though, so next time we plan to go to Kannoor as well.
